LocationProvider
This is an intentionally very limited abstraction over the various platform APIs for geolocation. It is specialized to the use case of maplibre-compose.
If you have a more general use case, prefer using the platform APIs directly or using a more powerful wrapper. In that case, you may want to provide your own LocationProvider implementation to unify the API underneath. This is an explicitly supported use case: permission defaults to granted, so a source where permission is not a concept needs no permission handling.
Each collector of updates starts an independent platform location request. Cancelling collection must stop that request and unregister its callbacks.
